Welcome to Barbados Monthly Arts Events Magazine Fifteen years of the publication All issues https://issuu.com/corriescott This is a completely free magazine created out of the need to inform so that we can get to exhibitions, artist talks, workshops and more, rather than hearing about events after they have taken place.

I encourage anyone with a visual arts event to get in contact with me at corriescott@gmail.com and I will add a free page for your exhibition, classes, workshops, talks etc.

Let’s get the arts out there!

Please, pass this magazine on to others and so help the creative side of Barbados get all the exposure possible.

VISUAL ARTS EVENTS BARBADOS

Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/175529135827747 Instagram. @visualartsbarbadosevents Visualartsbarbadosevents The Barbados Arts Events page was created to promote the Visual Arts Events in Barbados and artists whether exhibiting here in island or overseas.

The focus is on the events for the fine arts, encompassing art, photography, sculpture and installations, gallery receptions, exhibitions, talks, interviews, workshops, publications, studios, residencies.

I will also post visual art collaborations with writers, theatre, dance, videos, music and creatives but it has to encompass the visual arts/artists to be posted on this page.

I started this page because I felt that the visual arts were not getting much needed exposure to expose the talent in Barbados and around the world. I wish I could encompass all the creative arts as there is so much happening on this tiny wonderful island of ours but I am a one woman band doing this free. Over the years this page has become a support for all creative events in Barbados and I was happy for this but realised that it was diluting the fine arts section which it is meant to focus on.

I need to bring the focus back in these group pages to the visual arts.

Thank you for understanding.

PATRICK FOSTER 2025

Words and Images

by Risée Chaderton-Charles www.eye.one.visuals

HIS TOOLS

Patrick Michael Foster There is an awkwardness of teenagers.

It is a gangliness that is not only about the inability to control too-long limbs and too-big feet; it extends to too-loud voices and poor decisions. Random inner thoughts can flare into wild musings that find their way to the tongue without being sensibly leashed by the brain.

It was at this stage of my young adult awkwardness that I first met Patrick Foster.

He had just been photographed and I, a lowly assistant, had awkwardly mispronounced his name. As the crew got together for a group shot he leaned into me and said quietly, in his husky voice — for just me to hear — “Its Patrick, darling.”

This small moment was something that I had rarely seen then, and have seen too rarely since; an ignorant, erring underling corrected by a star not with irritation, but with grace, kindness, and love.

This was the shining moment that I fell in love with Patrick Foster, and my affection and admiration for him have not faltered in the decades since.

Patrick has always filled any room he has been in. Even when he has not tried or even wanted to do so, it is impossible to miss those mischievous blue eyes, that sharp wit, and that eyebrow that often quirks with unspoken revelry that only his friends know in depth. His world lives in vivid colour in his head, carried along, painted, repainted, sometimes with the intensity of oils and at other times with the dreamy shades of watercolour. Every memory of his first homeland is a beam in the supporting scaffolding of his ongoing life.If you are lucky enough to sit with Patrick in his quiet times, you may be gifted with stories of his childhood in Guyana; of memories of his mother, of his brother Simon — whose presence will never not be missed — and of the folklore that was an integral part of many Caribbean childhoods.

You may also hear him tell of the pain of being Caribbean white but not feeling or acting white in the Caribbean; of yearning for casual belonging in spaces where his skin made him stand out as a man of potential status, and a barely-trusted ally at best.

In his youth Patrick made an attempt to fit in where he had long been told he belonged — in Europe. It was a poor fit, a jacket not only not tailored for him but also constructed roughly and of coarse cloth.

Blinking back tears he recalls an incident on his return to England from holiday in the Caribbean, skin ever so slightly burnished by tropical heat and warm Caribbean sun, where a white acquaintance describes him to another acquaintance with a racial slur “I told you he was a ‘wog”.

After that, returning to the Caribbean was a non-negotiable. Despite those who would try to deny him, Patrick knew then that whatever obstacles he faced here, no matter how many fights he was going to have with Caribbean people about his right to be, to see, to be seen, to create Caribbean art, these people, these Caribbean people were his and he was theirs. Family may fight but they are family, and in that single moment in England Patrick became very aware that his family was not only with those to whom he was related by blood but more broadly among the people of the Caribbean. He is ours and we are his.

Also, like most Caribbean people, he’s not much for the cold. Decades later, his work continues to reflect that truth, from fighting with senior management at advertising agencies for the right to have darkerskinned models in local advertisements, to designing costumes that reflect a deep knowledge and love for Caribbean history, to writing plays that examine our past with a critical lens, to his persistent love affair with figures from our Caribbean folklore. With the goddess Mama Glo whose story evolves every time she flows from his brush. Patrick consistently plucks at the raw innards of Caribbean life. He papers it thinly with bright colours, but always leaves enough for those family members—even those who still want to fight— to know that these stories are not only Patrick’s stories but that, like him, they belong to all of us.

ARTS DIRECTORY BARBADOS

How It Happened I have, for so many years, wanted to create a free online reference book where anyone, in any part of the world, may access the creative people in Barbados. I could not do this on my own and Kathy Yearwood heard of my idea, offered to partner with me and I happily agreed.

What started out in March as a small book of what I thought might be a maximum of one hundred and fifty pages turned into a tome of over three hundred pages. A mixture of excitement and fear at what we had taken on. And here we are in December 2011 with a book showing off the talents in Barbados. So exciting.

The eight month adventure began. Finding artists, photographing them and their work. From March 2011 to October 2011 Kathy and I collated the artwork, the bios and statements and travelled around the island garnering images and information.

Large collections of artwork in homes. Convincing people who thought they were too old and forgotten and watching them smile as their work was photographed and having them talk about themselves so that we could create a bio for them. Literally slipping down the hills of clay at Chalky Mount to see an original kiln and spend the day with the potters.

Temple Yard with the Rastafarian community where they are blessed with talent, especially carving, and then coming away with gifts of pineapples and avocados. Photographing in the rain with an umbrella in one hand and a camera in the other to get the right angles. Going to openings and craft shows and talking to many. Coming to my home, going to Kathy’s, and going wherever was needed. Meeting the different personalities in so many locations as I photographed many of them for their portrait photo for the book. Remembering some who have left us. A labour of love, learning and fun.

The thank you part as I could not have done this on my own. Norma Springer who encouraged me to “take the book and run with it”. Kathy Yearwood who offered to partner with me collating and to create the book for artists in Barbados.

Alison Chapman-Andrews for helping Kathy and I proof read. Amazing how much you miss no matter how many times we went over it. Sue Bain for offering her professional opinion and suggestions as a copy editor. Peter Boos for all the encouragement. Laura Lin Hutchinson for her introduction. Finally, the most important people, the creative souls who put their trust in Kathy and I to show them off to their best. I hope we have done this.

I'm an artist myself and I've found that the art scene in Barbados could greatly benefit from some online presence. For the last 6 years I've been a full time artist and have had to learn a lot about the business behind selling art. It's not easy to make it as an artist but it is so fulfilling.

With Antillean Gallery of Art I hope to help raise the standard of art and artists in Barbados, and eventually across the Caribbean.”

“Somewhere, amid the darkness, a painter measures a blank canvas, a poet tests a line aloud, a songwriter brings a melody into tune. Art inspires, provokes thought, reflects beauty and pain.

I seek it out even more in these times. And in so doing, I find hope in the human spirit.”
